hands of new stock company which is now
being organized by gentleman thoroughly
conversant with the business, and is to be
for the manufacture of drill drawers, over
alls and Jumpers. IL is said that the con-
sumption of these goods in this State
amounts to over $4,000 dozen annually, and,
while they could be manufactured here
about as cheaply as in the North, hand
some profit can be realized from their sale:
One gentleman says that he has already sold
over 200 dozen pairs of these goods to one
retail firm alone for the present year
The facts in the death of T. J. Brown, as
received thus far, are that he was en-
gagged at Pine Bluff in repairing car on
one of the railroads there, the car at the
time standing on side track Through the
carelessness of a switchman an incoming
train, which should have run in on the main
track, was switched off on the side track
and Mr.. Brown, not being aware OF his dam
ger, was struck by the train and died IN SIX
hours from the injuries received. The
swtchman, realizing what had happened
through his carelessness, has disappeared,
fearing to face the consequences Mrs.
Brown has sued the railroad company for
$4,000. A S. Matlack took the body to
Eaton, O., the old home Of the Browns,
where the burial was held with Masonic
honors.

engaged in a scuffle at Palatka about 10 or
IL O'Clock Sunday morning for the possession
of revolver. 1t seems that the man wanted
the pistol and the women tried to keep him
from getting it. in the struggle the pistol,
as usual in such cases. was discharged, the

chance for her recovery.
Hon. Ernest Washington, one of st. Johns
county representatives, was home from
Tallahassee on Saturday looking after the
proposed cutting off of one member from
ST. Johns county in the new apportionment
under the new constitution. 1t would APP
pear that, as indicated i'll the census taken
about year ago, the population has so
much decreased in this county that it falls
below the counties entitled to two represen-
tatives. But it is claimed, and probably
very justly, that the census was so imper-
fectly taken that TO base any representation
upon it would do this progressive county
great injustice. At the last general election,
held in November, over 1900 registered
voters were on the books in the st. Angus
tine precinct alone, and the city of ST. Au-
gustine has upon her municipal registry
books some 1 400, the authenticity of which
can not be doubted, and this should indicate
the county's right to two members
At McClcnny it is learned from reliable
sources that it is more than probable the
men now in Jail at Jacksonville, charged
with the assault upon lack Haddock, are
not the real perpetrators of the deed. A
party at McClenny, who claims to have sin
side" information, says that the arrest and
alleged confession of one of the men are in
tended simply as "blind," given out by
the Sheriff and other officers to throw the
real criminals off their guard until they
can be caught. This party saws
that the men who committed the
assault live at Sanderson He
says that these men and the horses they
rode answer fully the description given Of
Haddock's assailants, and that Duval county
officers are now in that neighborhood search
ing for them. It is claimed that the morn
ing after the assault was made these men
were seen within z miles OF Jacksonville
and that in their conversation one of them
said "Well l wonder yhaw lack feels this
mornings" to which the ether man,nepiied
''Well, I'll bet he feels Sore it hetain't
dead" The party who overheard this
drove Immediately to Jacksonville, and re-
ported the matter to the offieess and ef posse
